K-pop’s finest and breathtaking Grecian draping are our inspirations for everyday and glamorous dressing this week. Here are our picks of Asia’s best dressed: 

G-Dragon

Performing at the US stint of BIGBANG’s tour, G-Dragon rocked this sequined zigzag bomber in Newark in front of hordes of screaming fans. 

T.O.P

At the same gig T.O.P and G-Dragon looked every inch the K-superstars in flamboyant zebra and white tiger-print jackets. Smudged eyeliner completed the look as they sweated it out to their songs in front of the buzzing crowd. Saint Laurent’s Hedi Slimane and his reputation of mingling fashion and music came to life on the boys. 

 

Gao Yuan Yuan

Actress Gao Yuan Yuan shows how stunning off-the-shoulder nude can be without a hint of tacky! This brocade Stella McCartney number looks fresh and sophisticated whilst the low-cut pointed toe courts add a subtly sexy touch. 

 

Krystal Jung

Younger sister of Jessica Jung, Krystal paired her black, leather YSL bag with a mannish blazer as she stepped out in Seoul. Note the rolled up cuffs of the oversized blazer, showing that the smallest touches can add sartorial flair in an instant.

 

Du Juan

Perfect in Prada, Du Juan is picturesque with her matching mauve and silver outfit and earrings. The bright pop of hot pink lipstick clashes in a way that shouldn’t work, yet harmonises the look so beautifully.

 

Wang Luping

This look from Wang Luping made me catch my breath upon first viewing. The Grecian draping and crystalline details on the asymmetric gown are offset perfectly by her one-earring styling. I’ve always been a fan of off-beat details and Wang Luping shows how to elevate them for red carpet worthy moments.
